Thomas'

Thomas' is a brand of English muffins and bagels in North America, established in 1880.

In 1874, he emigrated from England[3] to New York City and after other menial jobs began working in a bakery.

[4] By 1880, he had purchased his bakery at 163 Ninth Avenue in Manhattan,[4] where he featured his namesake muffins that were baked on a griddle, not an oven.

[4] The business expanded to 337 West 20th Street (a plaque designates the building as "The Muffin House").

(Whether the muffins were invented after Thomas had moved to the U.S. is unclear,[3][4] but the comments in the commercials are not intended to be accurate and are used for a humorous purpose.)
